I could see us dealing for him if a third team gets involved and sends Boston a pick. This way we would only have to send them one of our picks. Either way, i don't expect Rondo getting traded anywhere before the deadline but maybe talks get heated up again in the summer.

Da fuq ? The asking price for Rondo is a pick and a young player which is what we are asking for Lowry. How is this supposed to work? So...we are giving up a player that is the best PG in the east this year, and we have his bird rights, that may want to stay here.... for a guy that is a UFA next year, that is just coming off major surgery, thats exactly the same age... and that would never sign here? And people want to GIVE the Celtics a pick plus Lowry in this deal? To Ainge when he's not desperate? A team in our division? Ummm... ok.

If this has any truth at all it died as soon as we found out Ainge's price.

Not only do the $ not match, nor does anyone else make this trade, we just took on 22 mil in salary so have no cap space for Sefalosha not to mention we can't draft a SF with a pick if we just traded it away with the rest of our future.

I would go after Rondo, he's def better than Lowry. Down sides of picking him up are: will he re-sign?, he's coming back from knee surgery (but so far no complications though), and a backcourt of Rondo and DeMar have a .260 combined career 3fg percentage which is atrocious. To be fair to both of them, they are improving, and shooting career high numbers this season thus far.
